The Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC) has issued an official statement in response to reports suggesting that tech giant Meta (formerly Facebook) is considering exiting Nigeria.
According to the FCCPC, while Meta has expressed concerns over regulatory and operational challenges in the country, the Commission emphasized that it remains committed to creating a fair, transparent, and competitive digital environment that protects consumer interests and encourages innovation.
The FCCPC urged continued dialogue with Meta and other global platforms to ensure mutual understanding and compliance with Nigerian laws, while also assuring Nigerians that the government is not seeking to stifle digital expression or investment.
